Cant run Nano command on CentOS 6.3

Hi,

I just downloaded NagiosXI and VMWare Player. I have lunched NagiosXI on VMWare Player, changed root and sql passwords. I am currently trying to edit the script that runs everyday and backsup the mysql databases using the NANO command. However, nano is not a recongnised command on CentOS 6.3.

NOTES: The video tutorial runs on CentOS 5.4 as against CentOS 6.3 which runs on the XI Virtual Machine. My ifconfig output also displays an ipv6 address and not an ipv4 address. My network runs on ipv4. What do I do?

Hello,

I am new with NagiosXI. My VM runs on CentOS 6.3, 32bit, its a VMWare Machine which I am running with VMWare Player.

I have succeeded in changing my root password and MySQL password. But when I try to edit the script that runs everyday and backsup MySQL databases using the nano command, it returns and error saying the command is not found.

What do I do?

Run in terminal:

Code: Select all

yum install nano -y
...then try again.

Hope this helps.
